JOSEPH CORNELL AND MAGIC ASSEMBLAGE
Instructor: Carol Kazwick

In honor of the major retrospective of his work now touring the country, study the life and work of Joseph Cornell, probably the most influential collage and assemblage artist of the 20th century. We will investigate his imaginative and highly original body of work, which includes collage, assemblage and film. Students will construct an assemblage of their own using inspirations and techniques gathered from the study of Cornell’s work.

Supplies: Supplies for taking notes, any special objects you would like to incorporate into your piece. Papers, objects and wooden boxes will be supplied.

Thursdays: May 15, 22, 29; 6 – 8:30 PM • Kavanagh Bldg. Surface Design Studio

SKETCHING IN NATURE, A WORKSHOP
Instructor: Kimberly Mullarkey

Gain insight into nature by recording your observations of the natural subjects that surround us. This is a chance to sharpen your observation skills and learn about keeping a field sketchbook. Lectures about composition, color, perspective and light will be included. Majority of class will be spent outside: we will draw at The Fine Line and at another nearby site. This class is suitable for all skill levels. A great way to spend 3 days!

Supplies: Hardback sketchbook and mediums of your choice. You might want to bring a chair to sit on. Pack a lunch for both days.
